Episode 41: In this episode of Freed Stories, we connect with LaToya Russell, founder of The OBM Office and a July 2024 Freed Fellowship Finalist. As the creator of the Quitting Corporate Training School and an automation expert, LaToya shares her journey from corporate frustration to building a successful business empowering women, particularly mothers and underrepresented minorities, through tech education and automation expertise.
3 Key Takeaways:
- Start Moving to Find Direction: LaToya emphasizes that movement creates opportunity - she discovered her niche in automation by first exploring various services and following opportunities that resonated with her skills.
- Financial Foundation Matters: Maintaining corporate employment while building a side business provided the stability needed to experiment and grow, until reaching a sustainable income level.
- Strategic Transition: By focusing on automation services and identifying market gaps, LaToya built a scalable business model that evolved from direct services to teaching and certification programs.
